In this suburb 20 miles northwest of Dallas, some religious and political leaders have framed a nonpartisan school board election this week as a spiritual battle between forces of good and evil.
During a Sunday worship service, Robert Morris, a megachurch pastor and spiritual adviser to former President Donald Trump, warned his congregation that Satan was at work in the Grapevine-Colleyville Independent School District and other area schools, then shared the names of Christian school board candidates who would stand against such demonic forces.
David Barton, a leading promoter of the claim that America was founded as a Christian nation, recently spoke at a local theater, urging followers of Jesus to “go on the offensive” to restore prayer and biblical values in classrooms.

..."“I hate the narrative that they push that they are the ones that are bestowed or chosen by God to fix education,” said Harris, a high school social studies teacher who’s in a three-way race against a Patriot Mobile-backed candidate and a third contender.
Harris said his faith calls him to be kind to everyone, regardless of their gender, sexual orientation or religious beliefs. That’s one moral value that he thinks should be reflected in public education.
“If we’re really going to truly walk as Jesus walked,” Harris said, “then we need to not just talk the talk, but also walk the walk.”

Lehigh Valley school district must allow after school club run by Satanic group, federal judge...
Saucon Valley leaders tried to rescind their approval of the group after receiving backlash from the community. The court decided it is protected by the First Amendment

SPC Gary C. - From your attached article:
"The After School Satan Club is run by The Satanic Temple, a religious organization that promotes free speech, scientific inquiry and individual liberties. The temple's ideals are rooted in secular humanism. It advocates against hate groups, corporal punishment in public schools and religiously motivated attempts to restrict reproductive rights.
The temple's after school clubs, which have popped up in various districts in the U.S., allow students to participate in community service projects, nature-based activities, games, and arts and crafts.
Based on the name, no I do not agree with the judge. However based on the tenets of the organization, I do agree with the mission statement, but not the name.
